note 86358 added to function.json-encode

When Using Libraries such as Prototype you may find that once in a while when you return what you believe to be a empty array it will have a different behavior (vis a vis enumerables) than when you give it an associative array. To "fix" this, on your JS you may want to look for extended object properties to verify if it is an empty array or an ocject. example: if (transport.responseJSON['User'].length == undefined){ var user = $H(transport.responseJSON['User']); }else{ var user = transport.responseJSON['User']; } Thanks goes out to : jani@php.net This is totally expected behaviour. Please read this: http://www.json.org/ Note: array and assoc-array are different things. Latter being "object" in json. http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=45162 ---- Server IP: 66.207.199.35 Probable Submitter: 192.197.82.203 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.json-encode.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/86358 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86358/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86358/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86358/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86358/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86358/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86358/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86358 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/86358 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
